The Impact of Workplace Food and Beverage Choices on Health and Wellness

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Health and Wellness
• Interventions: Other: Healthy Beverage Initiative

• Registration Number: NCT03431051
• Lead Sponsor: California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute

Brief Summary

The study is designed to determine if instituting a Healthy Beverage Initiative (HBI) at hospitals influences health and wellness of employees over a 12 month period.

Detailed Description

To examine whether HBI is associated with decreased adiposity over a 12-month time period, in comparison to individuals identically assessed but not exposed to a HBI. Specifically, do those exposed to the HBI decrease in measures of adiposity, BMI, and sugar sweetened beverage (SSB) intake? Do they decrease more in those measures as compared to those not exposed to the HBI?

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Healthy Beverage Initiative	Healthy Beverage Initiative	A Healthy Beverage Initiative and health education will be implemented at two hospital campuses.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Abdominal adiposity	About one year.	Study participants at HBI campuses will show improvements (specifically, decreases) in indices of abdominal adiposity measured using sagittal abdominal diameter in centimeters.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Body Mass Index (BMI)	About one year.	Study participants at HBI campuses will show improvements (specifically, decreases) in body mass index \[BMI\] measured using height in centimeters and weight in kilograms to be calculated into BMI in kg/m\^2.
Sugar Sweetened Beverage Intake	About one year.	Study participants at HBI campuses will show improvements (specifically, decreases) in SSB intake measured by the BEVQ (beverage food frequency questionnaire).
